Behold! My character Alya! She's my Cypher character for a Curse of Strahd campaign and I loved playing so much that she's now a permanent OC. Read more on Character Hub below or ask questions here! https://characterhub.com/character/alya-pZUivPPZ #characterdesign #cyphersystem #curseofstrahd

sorry to ride the criticism train, but this site is really giving stock social media site with inkblot's name slapped on it, it's honestly creeping me out a little what bothers me mostly is how it doesn't at all feel focused on art anymore - you're encouraged to say "what's on your mind" with attachments as an afterthought. the wording of "photos" over "art"? reactions? (genuine question: do people like emoji reaction systems? they're fun on discord, but it feels... odd here (and to state the obvious, very facebook)) and why do profile galleries come after FOLLOWERS? what's the point of an art website where it feels that people's galleries are being hidden away? with all due respect, the redesign has a lot of things that just feel wrong about it

I've been thinking about this for a bit, but many of the design choices that came with this 2.0 update are... baffling, to say the least? The site is actually usable now (it barely worked for me before), but it feels like another Facebook/Twitter clone, rather than an art site. I'll continue to observe how things develop but I'm not sure I'm convinced yet. I also wanted to test uploading art here but I quite literally can't, I get an error every time.

The more I think about it.... The less I like it, unfortunately. Even putting aside the weird mobile bug that I mentioned in my previous post, things just feel... Off. Kind of like this is a social media app template and not an art site anymore; like no actual work was done to go from the ideas of 1.0. There isn't even a way to browse art in a grid view, which is like... The one main thing I expect from an art-focused platform (if there is, I have not found it, and if I haven't found it... Then that's bad design). I was excited to see 2.0 being out finally, as someone for whom the site was pretty much unusable for the longest time, and also as someone who participated in the initial funding. I don't want to lost hope, and I know 2.0 was JUST released but... With no communication in the discord, or additional info in the email, it doesn't give me a good feeling. As of now, I don't think I'll try posting on here again. I'll keep an eye on things still, but from a distance.

Oh god... What even happened here? We went from an art site to a facebook clone? All my artwork is out of order, my page doesn't even feel like an art site gallery, the front page is just another scrolling timeline where everything is massive and built with only mobile users in mind... I have to scroll endlessly to see any new artwork, hidden among people's status posts... No way to browse just artwork outside of tags. No way to see a tile of recently uploaded artwork. At least as far as I can tell. Clicking on trending tags brings me to yet another timeline scroll, which isn't even centered on desktop. It's aligned to the left with a lot of dead space on the right that is just... empty. Yeah no. This website is not for me. This isn't an art site. ("Photos" instead of "Gallery"???) It's yet another generic social media clone. Sorry, but that's not what I'm interested in. I don't know why there's such a push for every new site having a mobile-centric UI, even on desktop, designed to keep you scrolling forever on your phone. It is *so clunky* to use on desktop. It's so easy to miss new art uploads, because you can't view thumbnails on a grid. Discoverability becomes tied to how often people share your pieces around. I'm just tired, man. Maybe I'm just getting old and exhausted from trying out so many new "art sites". The way artwork is displayed and discovered is one of the most important things to me. I want to be able to open the front page, and see a grid of new artwork, where I can select multiple tabs to open and browse at my leisure. I want my profile to have my art be the focus. I don't need everything to try to function like bluesky or twitter, and if this is the direction inkblot is going to go, then well... I don't think I'll be giving it another chance. So if anyone who happened to follow me here (I can see my follower count got wiped anyway) wants to see what sort of art I'm doing now, please check out any of my other social links here: https://runicillusionist.carrd.co/ I hope for those of you who do intend on staying that this site serves your needs better than mine. But for me, I'm out. - Rune 🐇 EDIT: WHY IS THE WEBSITE CARD LINK SO BIG!???

Title: Totally Lore Accurate Silksong Doodle ALTERNATE RENDERS AND SPEEDPAINT ON SUPPORT PAGES Not so proud owner of the Never-Played-Hollow-Knight award....Guys i'm sorry, I haven't gotten the chance! Was needing to doodle something to practice. Then, Silksong finally released, AND I've always been a fan of that series' character designs, figured I'd doodle up Hornet, and somehow managed to make the least lore accurate background ever... This was a funny experiment, because I did this entirely, 100% in Blender! The drawing, the shading, the rendering, the compositing, all done in Blender natively! I love it's tools.... Done in about 1:10 hours! Enjoy, ya weird salamanders!

Heyo, first post here! Wanted to check it out as it seems interesting so far. Also wanting to make more artist friends!! Anyways this is my sona Arcadia that I drew :3 It's a bit old but I'm still happy with the piece. And actually her design has changed since this drawing! So maybe I should try redrawing it at some point, haha.

💙This is Chip! A old adopt I got a long time ago that I decided to redesign slightly. He's a shark/bear :3 💙 🌈Art ★ XxAlienAt7ElevenxX🌈 👽Character ★ XxAlienAt7ElevenxX👽 💕XxAlienAt7ElevenxX ★ 2021💕 ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜💖
